Dearest Oscar, you are very special indeed! You are an utterly gorgeous Magyar Vizsla, with that soft-looking, colorful fur and that sweet face with those lovely brown eyes. You have the most delightful personality, too. You are not only a dog; you are many species all in one: a human, a dolphin, a sea dog, a merman, a cheetah! You talk more than you bark, and you make the most un-doggy-like noises when you sleep. You bring a smile to everybody's face! You are your dear person's brother, and you two love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Oscar, on being chosen Dog of the Day for yesterday, Wednesday, December 4! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
-- Terry Pratchett (1948—2015), Sourcery
